Wearing and Bearing Materials
The D-Glide range of materials gives the design engineer the chance of replacing
metal-based materials with unique, non-asbestos, wearing and bearing composites
capable of duplicating, and in some cases exceeding the performance of asbestos
composites. D-Glide materials possess strength, durability, dimensional stability and
excellent wear characteristics besides exhibiting good resistance to attack by many
chemicals.

Applications
- Railway industries   - Mining industry
- Marine industries   - Chemical industries
- Fluids handling   - Food & confectionery

 
Hanger Bearing                             ABS Bushes

 
D-Glide Sphericals                        Cylinder Gland

Cast Nylons
Self Lubricating Bearing Material
If any material can claim to be a "fit and forget" bearing material oil filled nylon can.
The properties outlined below demonstrate its wearing advantages over ordinary cast
nylons, which themselves can justifiably claim to out last iron, brass, bronzes, and a
host of other metallic and non-metallic materials by 5 to 10 times.

Advantages
- Low density   - Non porous
- Exceptional wear and abrasion resistance
- Excellent resistance to various chemicals
- Lower co-efficiency than other nylon grades
- Lubricant will not spin, dry, drain or machine out
- Operates efficiently in direct contact with abrasive slurries
  and marine applications

Available in Natural & Black

 
        Sprocket                                       Nylon Cog                           Nylon Pulleys

Anti-Slip Flooring
Anti-Slip floor or deck covering is produced from a unique combination of polymers,
cork granules and rubber to form a stable, homogenous and hard wearing anti-slip
floor or deck covering which is highly suited to wet or dry conditions. The polymer
compound has been formulated to give superior weathering characteristics under
the harsh Australian climatic conditions.

Applications
- Marine decking   - Pleasure Craft   - Public Transport
- Walkways   - Swimming pool surrounds   - Pontoon decking

Advantages
- Anti-slip when wet   - High wear resistance
- High thermal properties   - Easy to install
- High chemical resistance   - Highly flexible
- Aids safety   - Fire retardant
